Oops, sorry, I've checked wrong file.  It was commited 2 days before.
However, we should have more space to fit kern.flp with a 1.44MB floppy.

% pwd
/R/stage/image.kern
% du -sk .
1404    .

Ah, only a few kbytes over...

***

If we can compress kernel image by bzip2(1),

-r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  1343299 Dec 17 07:53 kernel.gz*
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  1292744 Dec 17 07:53 kernel.bz2*

we get additional 50kbytes spaces.  It seems that loader does
understand bzip2ed kernel; anybody tried it with 4-stable ?
